If I hit Powerball tonite, I got dibs on the rest of the walnut!

Anyone lack a number??? Please request one.... I've looked through the last ten pages or so and found a few new guys, but can have missed someone.

And stay tuned... there might be some other cool stuff appearing here soon!

 

[wavey davey]

Thank you Mr Walker!!

 

[GODSBASSMAN]

Hey, My wife just said I could buy another bass... BUT she gets a $1000.00 first. Then my bass.

Fretless, chambered 6?

 

[tjclem]

 

[BassParrott]

Thanks Mr. Walker!

Godsbassman those chambered Annes sure look great to me!

 

[GODSBASSMAN]

Sure do BP but I am thinking smaller. They look rather large.

 

[kjpollo]

I guess you didn't hit it?

Not one stinking number!

 

[MrWalker]

Sure do BP but I am thinking smaller. They look rather large.

The Anne is somewhat bigger than your "ordinary" bass out there. But it's not heavy (at least when it's chambered) and it does play great when sitting down, cause it "lifts" the strings a little further away from your lap than a "standard" design. But if you're going with chambered, the bass will also become deeper (if you want to emphasize the chamberedness, of course).

The Phoenix design is great, too, but it's not really a small bass, either. Mine is chambered, so it's thick, too. If you want a fairly small bass, then the Ergo designs may be your thing, or the Jon.

The Anne and the Phoenix both balance very well when played sitting down. The Jon and the other singlecut designs doesn't balance quite as well, simply because of the shorter lower horn. But they aren't bad, and they all balance perfectly well on a strap.

And there's the "Kim", too, the new 6-string "traditional Jazz" body shape that Tom just introduced.

I'm almost getting envious here now... but I guess I have little or no reason to!!!! I'm probably way up there in the lead with my 4-string Ryan, 6-string Jon, 4-string Jazz, 4-string Lise, 6-string Anne and 5-string Phoenix and may be responsible for causing some GAS around the place?

 

[Nofretz6]

#48, thank you sir.
Not official 'till Wednesday.

And, like many here, contemplating on another.

 

[GODSBASSMAN]

Thank you , Mr. Walker for that rundown. "Kim" what "Kim"? I ain't seen no "Kim". I have missed something. I truly did ask Tom about doing just such a thing a couple of months ago, didn't I Tom? Whare is "Kim"?

 

[tjclem]

Funny you should be posting I just had somebody ask about #122. e-mail me.....t

 

[MrWalker]

Bass #181 is a redwood burl top on mahogany, Tom's new (I think) "Kim" body shape that is much like a jazz body as you can see. Black layer between top and body, reliefs for belly and forearm. 5-part mahogany and maple neck, 5 string fretless with fretlines (I gotta be able to go back and forth easily), ebony fingerboard, Bartolini PJ pups with an 18v system. Black hardware. Here's the best pic so far.

GODBASSMAN look here ^^^^^^

 

[GODSBASSMAN]

Oh, yes. Missed that one through all the talk and pics of snowy winter that made me shake and shudder. I hates snow, sleet, slush and freezing rain for the most part. The only way i would go th Norway is to jam with the Mr. Walker. Just thinking...I went to High school in Norway, Maine, USA. Too much winter there also. That is why I moved to Florida then to S. Carolina. Tell me about your Lise. And anyone who has one. Thanks, guys.
